The Wegner record is for the Track 5000 meters. Roads have too many variables as they can be downhill courses. There isnt any other proof of any 14 year olds running faster on the track.
I found a 14:49 for international record but this list does not seem to include any Kenyans who have run much faster:

I 100% guarantee this is an excuse because you don't train hard enough to see results/expect results immediately.

Any proof? Any studies? Anything other than anecdotes? And if you use anecdotes, make sure they are "bullet proof", and no other possible explanation exists.

"bullet-proof" is a compound adjective and should be hyphenated.

How does he feel about serving in Trump's (or Hillary's) Navy? Scary where those folks might send them.
